Four years after completion, federally aided completers who are working and not enrolled from Truman State University have median earnings of $56,947. That median is $354 below the peer median of $57,301, the middle value for comparable institutions (same type and size), and falls in the 39th percentile.
For earnings beyond expectations, the gap between what graduates earn and what the model expects for similar students, graduates earn about $2,069 less than the model expects for similar students. The result is in the 47th percentile.
The part the model attributes to the factors it measures (field of study, enrollment and the local labor market) adds $5,339. The part it attributes to a remainder it does not explain subtracts $7,408.
On Azimuth’s return pillar, the university is in the 48th percentile among nonprofit four-year institutions.
Graduate earnings at Truman State University show a typical outcome alongside a modeled shortfall from expectations. For federally aided completers who are working and not enrolled, median earnings are $56,947 four years after completion.
Azimuth places that measure in the 39th percentile among nonprofit four-year institutions, using an earnings cohort of 800 completers. Earnings beyond expectations, the gap between what graduates earn and what the model expects for similar students, offer a separate comparison.
Graduates earn about $2,069 less than the model expects for similar students. Earnings scenarios based on the program mix place typical earnings at $56,947, with a downside scenario of $44,511 and an upside scenario of $82,865.
An estimated 32.3% of graduates continue to graduate study, a figure estimated from the program mix. The modeled shortfall sits alongside a broad range of possible earnings scenarios.
Federally aided graduates of Truman State University who are working and not enrolled earn a median of $56,947 four years after completion, in the 39th percentile. The peer median for comparable institutions (same type and size) is $57,301, and the university sits $354 below that level overall.
Azimuth ranks Truman State University #757 for return among nonprofit four-year institutions. Graduates earn about $2,069 less than the model expects for similar students.
That outcome sits at the 47th percentile among nonprofit four-year institutions. The part the model attributes to the factors it measures (field of study, enrollment and the local labor market) is the one that adds $5,339.
The part it attributes to a remainder it does not explain is the one that subtracts $7,408. Within the measured factors, the STEM component alone adds $1,598.

An estimated 32.3% of graduates continue on to graduate study, based on the program mix, rather than entering the workforce immediately.
Fields at Truman State University span a broad modeled earnings range, so the school-wide median masks differences by field. The downside earnings scenario is $44,511 and the upside scenario is $82,865, both modeled from the program mix rather than observed groups.
Four years after completion, program medians are $84,515 in Accounting, $77,315 in Nursing, and $70,633 in Business Administration and Management. These field results put concrete examples at the higher end of the modeled range.
At Truman State University, the cost side is relatively favorable, although the earnings model gives a less favorable reading. The average net price, what aid recipients pay after grants and scholarships, is $12,780, below the $14,068 peer median for comparable institutions (same type and size) by $1,288.
Aid covers about 49% of the published cost for the average aid recipient. Among borrowers who completed, median federal student loan debt is $21,000.
That is below the $21,229 peer median for comparable institutions (same type and size) by $229. That debt corresponds to an estimated payment of $239 a month if repaid over ten years.
Graduates earn about $2,069 less than the model expects for similar students. The below-peer price and debt figures point toward lower borrowing, but the model comparison gives the return picture a less favorable side.
